• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated timber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work. To

• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter microscopic particles.
